Eye to eye

Eye to eye artwork.

Eye to eye is the sixth album release by The Gliding Faces and the second album entirely of cover versions. With at least one song from each decade from the 1970s to the 2020s, this eclectic mix of tracks were carefully chosen by Dan and Max out of the twenty-plus tracks that were recorded for the project.

Concept

We've learned nothing. The signing off of the commentary from the first covers album was something The Gliding Faces wanted to prove wrong. So they did pretty much what they had done and learned nothing again, but this time, with Leonardo da Vinci artwork.
